02/ The brief

What the notice says

Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.

The Authority has procured a service provider to take responsibility for the delivery of certain support services

for primary care contractors and other healthcare commissioners. Some of these services were provided by

NHS England across England. Other parts of the UK - Northern Ireland, Wales, Scotland, as well as the Isle of

Man, Guernsey and Jersey are within the scope of this procurement also.

The services within the scope of this procurement currently include:

1. Administering payments to primary care contractors, related administration, data quality work and pensions

administration;

2. Management of medical records including transfers and related courier and storage arrangements;

3. Probity, assurance and counter fraud activities in respect of primary care services;

4. Management of lists confirming the eligibility of primary care contractors to provide services;

5. Support services for screening activities (including breast screening and cervical cancer screening), for

example, call and recall letters and results letters; and

6. other related and/or incidental and/or value-added services (not currently forming part of the service

provided).

The service provider takes on delivery of certain services currently provided by NHS England and then will drive

through a transformation plan to enhance service quality and value for money, developing an evolving catalogue

of services to reflect the Authority's requirements.

The framework agreement is for the potential use/benefit of any of the participating bodies referred to in

section VI.3 (Additional Information), and there may be initial requirements and an evolving catalogue for those

participating bodies as well.
